Finally, after opening our virtual doors for almost 3 months, we are organising our first Challenge. The theme of the challenge is black & white. Please submit your LOs by 2nd November for a chance to win one of 2 RAKs for the best Black & White LO. Here is a sample of what Rachel & I have done.

Over the Raya holidays, I dug up some old photos of my mom-in-law and my parents to use on the chipboards I bought. They were both really simple LOs because I wanted to do finish it quickly.

For my mom in-law's LO, I painted the chipboard with Jo Sonja's Cashmere background colour, then used crackle medium on it, then splatter Jo Sonja's Yellow Oxide acryllic gouache, then another coat of Cashmere. However, the cracks didn't appear as distinct as I wanted them to be, oh well... LOL. For my parent's LO, I just used Pink Paislee's Moon Glade paper on the chipboard. I printed out the captoion, used some bling, and embossed the flower chipboard, and VOILA! Lazy person's scrapping work.

Shamm made some cards to give away. The recipiants will be very lucky as they are really lovely cards. Here's wishing there are many more cards to come. Pink Paislee pattern paper was used for one of the cards.

Rachel made another LO and card from the Inspiration Kit. Rachel's LO and card is really outstanding. Simple yet conveys the message so well. More eye candy for you all. I just love the Pink Paislee papers.

Finally, I've got the store updated. I've put in the Pink Paislee stuff on, and soon some ribbons will be uploaded. Fingers crossed, all these will be done by tonight. In the next few days, will have other embellishments in the shop, including some from Around the Block. Trying my best to get that all up before the Hari Raya break.

Have been away for some time. Before I give anyone the idea that we have disappeared, it's because I've been down sick for almost a week, and over the weekend was at Subang Parade's craft market. More on the craft market in another post.

Anyway, enough about myself. I have procrastinated for far too long, now. I have here Rachel's design work for the Child's Play kit. 2 LOs and a card. Super! Here are the pcitures. I just love her style.

Aren't both the kids really cute?

Last Saturday, we conducted a small class for children at ALIMkids Bookshop in Subang. A small class of 5, but we had fun nonetheless making a mini "I am Thankful" book. The kids were very creative and we just need to be on hand to teach them some techniques and they were off by themselves, decorating, writing, etc. It's amazing to see how much creativity children posses but are very often not fulfilled. Here are some pictures of the day.

We will organise more classes after Ramadhan. Please email us at: info@kindasweet.com for more information.
